Maytal Zchut

Maytal Zchut is a queer, first generation Israeli-American writer, best known for her character driven drama and genre television work, including the DC show Stargirl on the CW. Endlessly fascinated by the study of human behavior and the complexities of human nature, she incorporates elements of LGBTQ+ struggles with isolation and identity into her work – often informed by her experiences spending formative years split between America and Israel. After earning a degree in Television from Emerson College, Maytal honed her craft by working in as many areas of the television and film industry as possible. As a fresh voice in comics, Maytal is channeling her screenwriting knowledge and personal experiences to tell stories from her unique perspective. It Happened on Hyde Street: Devour marks Maytal's gripping comic book writing debut.
